“In New York it seems like there’s no Monday or Saturday or Sunday. The town is always moving. The vibe is great.”

I’m obsessed by the idea of making my mark on history. And Arsenal is my paradise.

My dad always taught me to never be satisfied, to want more and know that what is done is done.

Being seen as the best striker in Europe doesn’t spur me on-it’s helping my team to success. That’s my only aim. I’m not a machine.

When I go home, sometimes, even when I had an amazing game, I always think about what I missed.

I like to score a proper goal, you know – a passing move.

You learn from your mistakes.

It’s not about me, it’s about how I can help my team to achieve more. And I do that through scoring goals.

It’s difficult to talk about Pele because I didn’t see him.

I may be French, but I’m playing for Arsenal.

And I don’t really like golf. I know a lot of English footballers play, but I know that if I go with the club to play, sooner or later I will end up trying to smash the ball with my foot.

I have to say that when I was young, when any politician was talking I wasn’t even interested. Maybe they were saying some nice stuff, but then if you put Michael Jordan on TV, I was interested!

I’ll never forget the club or him I don’t see Arsenal without Arsene Wenger.

I can’t stay in the box and wait for the ball. I can’t – I would die.

People always see the goals, and for me, strikers are not only about scoring goals.

Quite simply, it is true that I can be a pig! It is not a lie to say that. Sometimes, I feel that I am in the right even when I am wrong.

I always think about what I missed, and I think that was my driving force – never be satisfied with what I’ve done.

I am convinced the greatest act of love we can ever perform for people is to tell them about God’s love for them in Christ.

I went to the public schools myself. And they were great for me.

The greatest gift you can give (yourself or anyone else) is just being present.

There is no greater folly in the world than for a man to despair.

Our attitudes control our lives. Attitudes are a secret power working twenty-four hours a day, for good or bad. It is of paramount importance that we know how to harness and control this great force.

I will never be a stupid girl… and neither should you. Today, charting your own course isn’t just more necessary than ever before… it’s also much easier — and much more fun. A good education is one of the greatest gifts you could ever give yourself.

If the Lord is coming soon, is this not a very practical motive for greater missionary effort? I know of no other motive that has been so stimulating to myself.

Skeptics always want miracles such as stepping down from the Cross, but never the greater miracle of forgiveness.
